The general will eat grass

Chapter 39 The Battle of Changyang Pass

The wages of avarice is death.As the saying goes, there must be a brave man under a lot of money!

Seeing the lustrous and translucent jade belt buckle, the eyes of the four shop assistants straightened.At that moment, two waiters promised to help deliver the wine, and the other two followed suit and agreed.

Kuotan, a Hun, wore a gray wolf fur waistcoat, a prairie mouse fur earmuff hat, and a six-inch-wide leather waistband with a machete similar to a machete. The bone bow made of animal skin is three feet and two inches long, and the string is made of tiger tendons. The pulling force is as strong as three stones and two jun.

Kuo Tan rode on a prairie pony, wandering back and forth at the gate of Changyang South City, rolled up a megaphone with dried animal skins, and continued to shout in broken Chinese: "Surrender quickly, leader of the Han people, you are afraid of us!" Is Bo’er just as hard as an iron hoof? You are as cowardly as a mouse, if you don’t want us to flatten Changyang, come out and fight with me!”

The leader of the Bor Jijin tribe originally didn't want to participate in the war launched by the Daxi tribe this time, because they were located in the clan land on the east side of Xianbei Mountain, and were taken away by the newly-rising Dongyi Shanyu Murongtu, causing them to be displaced and homeless. In the severe winter, they killed a large number of cattle and sheep. In order to have a better pasture, they had to agree to Daxi Shaman Qi Liangtu's suggestion and join the Daxi tribe to conquer the Central Plains.

However, not long after arriving, the leader of Borjijin discovered the trick of the Daxi tribe. Daxi Shuode actually let the Borjijin tribe take the lead, while the Daxi people fell behind, and asked them to come to die on the pretext of stationing at Yuping .Bo'er only saw the tricks, and wanted to use siege tactics to exhaust the Han people's food and grass and make them surrender voluntarily.Da Xi Shuode couldn't see their delay, so he sent his son to supervise the battle. It happened that he met Ding Guogong, who had an explosive force value, and stabbed Da Xitu, who was playing soy sauce, right through.Now the leader of Bo'er had no choice but to attack Changyang desperately in order to clear himself of the suspicion of murdering the second generation of the army.

Kuo Tan even wants to make a military contribution, win more cattle and sheep, so that he can marry a girl next year.Fighting all the way from Yuping Pass, the Xiongnu army was not hindered much. Kuo Tan felt that the Han people had nothing but appearances, but they were actually vulnerable.When he heard that the one who killed Tuci was a very powerful old man, he wanted to compete with him.What's more, the two armies are in battle, and if he fights against the general alone, if he wins, he will definitely be praised by the leader, which will boost the morale of the Xiongnu army.Changyang Guan has been unable to attack for a long time, which has also affected the fighting spirit of Bo'er Jijin.

Thinking of this, in order to anger the leader of the Han army, Kuo Tan began to shout with obscene words, but his Chinese proficiency was really not high, and when he scolded people, he was nothing more than comparing people to animals. "Leader of the Han people, are you a mouse? Why do you hide your head? Prairie rats are most afraid of eagles. Are you also afraid of my eagle? It's not a real man to be spineless, and the great Bo'er looks down on this eagle the most. Kind of people!"

These words seem to be nothing to the ears of the Han people.

Seeing that his cursing was ineffective, Kuo Tan felt that the Han people were shameless and spineless. With a "swoosh", a sharp arrow pierced through the air, and he immediately lay back on his horse to avoid the arrow.Then he quickly got up to defend with his waist strength, and raised his eyes directly to the heroic young general in blue robe and light armor standing on the city wall.It turned out that it wasn't that the Han people had no backbone, they knew better about dormancy, they found the right time to strike, and when they saw that he had just stepped half a step into the range, they launched an attack.

Kuo Tan was in a cold sweat, if he hadn't reacted quickly and was good at equestrianism, he would have been injured by the arrow. "Blue robe, do you dare to come down and fight with me? You win, we retreat today, I win, you open the city gate and welcome us into the city."

In response to him was another arrow, which was a provocative move by the young general in blue robe.Kuo Tan got angry, took down the big bow on his back, bent the bow and set up an arrow, and aimed at the boy on the city wall.What he used was the stunt of shooting two arrows in succession, it seems that this kid is still alive and dares to provoke him.However, the two arrows were all blocked by the black spear that swept out. The person holding the spear was covered in dirt and could not be described.The only thing visible is his black light armor and goatee.

Could it be that this person is the general who killed Daxi Tushi?If he can be caught, the leader will be able to explain to Daxi Shuode, and he will be a great achievement.

After thinking about it, Kuo Tan rode his horse and rushed towards the city wall, then abandoned his horse and took his bow, and ordered the surrounding Hun soldiers to cover him, and he wanted to go up to the city wall.Under the rain of arrows from both sides, Kuo Tan successfully climbed up the siege ladder, and was about to climb up the wall, when suddenly liquid poured from the seepage of the city wall, drenching him and the soldiers below.The smell of strong alcohol was so intoxicating that Kuo Tan couldn't help sticking out his tongue and licking it.

wrong!Kuo Tan had a bad feeling in his heart, and hastily let out a retreat wolf howl.However, it was too late, only to hear an order from the blue-robed young general standing on the city wall, and ten thousand rockets fell from the sky.Before he was engulfed by the fire, he saw a young boy with big grape eyes standing behind the young general in blue robe.

Kuo Tan couldn't extinguish the fire on his body with one hand, and the siege ladder was also ablaze with the help of alcohol, so he had to slide down the ladder to the ground.

"Come on, it's time to put on the hot oil." The little boy shouted.

As the boiling oil poured out from the seepage hole on the city wall, it directly scalded the Huns below, and they cried all over the sky.

"Rocket is ready!" The young general in blue robe once again raised his commanding hand.

Kuo Tan was extremely panicked, he didn't care about the burning pain on his body, and he didn't care about the wailing of the soldiers, he ran away from the base of the city wall by rolling and crawling.He finally escaped from the flames of hell, but was shot through the chest by an arrow from the young general in the blue robe of the city wall.

By God, is he never going back to the grassland again?

Cheers from the soldiers and civilians came from the city wall, and an uncle waved a big iron cooking spoon and shouted with tears in his eyes: "Fucking thieves, go back to your hometown!"

The man who was holding up his parent's bench to beat the Huns shouted, "The bandits get out, get out of our Beixuan land!"

The people scattered all over the city wall also shouted angrily: "The thieves get out, get out of our land!"

Huge momentum, exciting!

The rain of arrows "shua shua" repelled the attack of 5000 Huns.

When the war ceased, Duke Ding took Zhou Gang and others to thank the common people, especially the treasurer Xu. "Thanks to Mr.'s ingenious strategy of drinking first and then oiling, we can help our army win a big victory."

"Where, where, thanks to the little boy's suggestion, and my friend's reminder." The shopkeeper Xu smiled brightly, and did not forget to support the chef friend.It turned out that shopkeeper Xu went to borrow wine from his friend, and after hearing his purpose, the friend immediately offered him a plan of boiling oil.Together, the two of them mobilized the people of the city together with the magistrate who lived in the yamen, and launched a military-civilian cooperation, which helped Duke Ding and the others win the victory.

"I will never forget the merits of everyone, and I will definitely report to the higher authorities in the report." Zhou Gang defended the city for so many years, and it was the first time he felt the concerted efforts of the people. With the unity of the will, their walls of Changyang City became indestructible.It was also the first time that he looked at the magistrate magistrate pleasingly. In the past, this inactive ninth-rank official would only pretend to be muddled. "This general is also here to represent the guards of Changyang, and thank Lord Chen for his help."

"Hehe, don't dare, dare not, what a subordinate official should do." County magistrate Chen smiled while stroking his belly.

But the calm didn't last long. On the second day, the sun had just risen, and the enemy's horn sounded again.

The Huns killed a general, and sent another general. This one learned from the experience of the former, and first used the catapult to open the way. The first wave was a strong attack. Dingguo and the others had no power to fight back, so they could only go first. Remove the wall.

Yesterday, a bunch of "heroes" all stood at the intersection and watched the battle from a distance. Shopkeeper Xu asked the magistrate: "My lord, what should we do?"

The county magistrate Chen doesn't know what to do. His only wish in this life is to earn more money while he is in office, and when he gets older, he can return to his hometown and become a rich old man.

"There are more than 5000 Huns. Yesterday we killed 300 people, which is only a fraction of their total number." Steward Wang said with a heavy brow, "The catapult attacking the city is powerful, but the big stone is hard to get. There are also two miles of land in the mountain, and transportation is inconvenient. I am afraid that someone in the Huns figured out how to use the catapult to project at a fixed point. In this way, it is not difficult to open a hole in the city wall."

Zhao Yuansong: "So, before that, we have to find a way to destroy the catapult?"

County magistrate Chen watched the three people flying in from outside the city wall hugging the boulder, and asked tremblingly, "Can Changyang still hold?"

Steward Wang: "Just hold on for one more day." According to the original plan, Feng Yulin led the Tiangang Army to the Screen Record Pass, and it is estimated that they will attack Yuping Pass tomorrow to encircle Wei and save Zhao.

The stone throwing finally stopped, and the horses neighed from the city, the arrows pierced through the air, and the sound of killing was heard.Behind the bunker on the city wall, Duke Ding waved his big hand, "Go to the city wall!" A group of sergeants "hula la" quickly took their positions.

The common people and the strong seemed to have found confidence and blood in yesterday's battle. They did not need to be greeted by others, and they were going to the city wall with fire sticks, long benches, and kitchen knives.The women who didn't show up yesterday also came out to help. They disassembled the quilt, soaked the cotton wool in oil, and then fished it out and wrapped it on the arrow point.

The deluxe version of the Xiongnu siege ladder has been burned. This time they used a simple version, a two-piece wooden ladder with a thick bowl mouth, which was carried to the bottom of the city by four people. climb.Because some wall stacks were destroyed by catapults, it was not easy to defend. At this time, a gap appeared in the defense. Seeing that the situation was not good, Zhou Gang and Deng Mian rushed over like a gust of wind, with one holding a knife and the other holding a spear.

Zhao Yuansong was not idle either, and transported wine to the city wall with the folks.

The fighting on the battlefield is not too fancy, it is all the simplest hacking and assassination.Zhao Yuansong and others tried their best to avoid the fierce fighting crowd and poured wine on the ladder.But the Huns had been on guard for a long time. A Hun with a knife slashed at Zhao Yuansong with his big eyes and waving a big knife.Zhao Yuansong backed away in panic, but tripped over the gravel behind him, and it was too late to hide. Seeing that the knife was about to fall on his head, he thought to himself: Are you going to die?I haven't waited for the male god to come back, so I am so unwilling!

At this moment, he saw Deng Mian, who was behind the Huns, pounced like a vigorous leopard, and pierced the back chest of the Huns with a spear. Pick this dead Huns directly to the city.

Zhao Yuansong wiped the blood splattered on his face and looked at him stupidly.

Deng Mian's face was broken, without the old ram and bear, as if he had grown up several years in an instant, he looked him up and down, "Injured?"

Zhao Yuansong shook his head.

"You're not injured, so don't just sit here stupidly, go and light their ladders!" With a look of disgust on his face, he hit another Hun with a spear on the neck of the other Huns. With a "click", Zhao Yuansong seemed to hear When the neck snapped, the Hun fell to the ground before he could howl.

Zhao Yuansong: "..." All right, the people in Dingguo's mansion are all cruel, so he should be even more cruel to protect himself.
